A Crooked Kind of Perfect Audiobook

" allison wants to learn to play the piano. "

" Totally surprised by how charmed I was. Every single bit of it, from the different set up to the characters to the writing. And the organ. Is it really so hard to deal with special needs in understated ways like this? If Linda Urban and Gennifer Choldenko can do it, so can other authors. Learn from them, other authors. "

" Funny! Clever, well written, uplifting. "

" Sweet story about how sometimes even when we don't get what we want, what we do get can be just as good. "

" It was good, I liked it, kind of funny!!! "

" Hip, hip, HOORAY for Linda Urban!!! I read this book tonight.....it was funny, touching, cynical, honest ~ a MUST read for tweens and on up! (Including me - an old fogey!) Such fun!! "

" I wish I could be more articulate about why this book was so much more satisfying than other YA I have read recently. "

" its very good and funny "

" I loved this book! Loved, loved, loved. It was funny and sweet and had a fantastic message that was gently delivered by interesting characters! Writing was excellent. Simple, sweet, funny, interesting, thought provoking...my perfect read. "

" Even though I just started it its very good so far. It really pulled me in. "

" I thought that it was kind of hard to follow! "

" Humorous look at the challenges of being a kid in a normal, yet uniquely crazy world. Addressed issues of parental mistakes without intentional malevolence. "

" I LOVE THIS BOOK!This reminds me so much of me,because I play the piano.I love playing the piano,just like her.Also some day I would actually want to play at Carnegie Hall too.I will succeed.:D "

" This book was very good! I could not put it down! "

" Hilarious and heart-rending account of a 11-year-old girl and her determination to play piano, but on an organ. Sweet relationship with her dad who has social anxiety. "

" It was ok. Not one of my favorites, and one of the reasons I didnt like it, is because I didn't like the plot. "

" A sweet tween book. "

" Very cute! I grew up with an organ like this in our house and played many of the songs that were mentioned in the book. "

" Great children's book. The back cover says it's geared for ages 8-12, but I'm going to recommend it to my 13-year-old daughter as the message could easily be a metaphor for all teens. It is cleverly written and moves quickly. Thanks, Connie, for the recommendation. "

" I've posted a few thoughts on my blog. "

" a fun "girl book". Zoe wants a piano so that she can play in carnegie hall. Unfortunatley, her dad bought her an organ. On top of that - her best friends now hangs out with the cool kids and her father is a agoraphobic. Funny book. A good quick read "

" Cute, fast read. I am finding that if I read YOUNG adult fiction I won't have to deal with tons of swearing. "

" Its good. Sort of. It's not really catching my attention. :? "

" Loved this book. A great way to look at the world. Or at least I think so any way ;-) "

" Cute story about making and losing friends changing and staying the same trying something new when you dont want to and overcoming your fears and doing something for someone you love "

" luv it, read it twice, great book. Easy read "

" Cute book. Zoe played the organ but she wanted so bad to play a shiny baby piano! "

" A wonderful book about a girl who loves to play piano "

" Cute, cute little book for tweens. "

" This was a great audio book! "

" I also agree with emma. "

" The moral of this story is to never give up. Zoe never did even when her dad didn't show up at the concert! I would be really mad if my dad did that! "

" This book quietly snuck in and knocked the toe socks off of me. Quirky, warm, sweet, true - I'm going to be shoving this into my students hands. And wondering why it's not better known. "
